About Allium tuberosum (garlic chives)

Allium tuberosum is a hardy, tussock-forming perennial. In autumn, the above-ground foliage dies off completely and the plant is not visible above ground. In spring, the plant sprouts fresh and vigorous again with new green leaves.

In summer, graceful white umbels appear that are not only decorative but also attract bees and other insects. Both the leaves and flowers are edible. The plant grows best in a sunny to semi-shaded spot in well-drained, nutritious soil. Regular cutting encourages new growth and keeps the plant compact.
